4.0 out of 5 stars Good Math Word Problem Review, January 1, 2008
This review is from: 501 Math Word Problems (Paperback)
Overall I think this is a quality product, that packs a lot of bang for its price of $12.95. I'm using it to prepare for the GRE later this year, and have found it to be great at stoking your learned math skills as well as introducing new concepts. Very straightforward, comes with the answers to each question answered and explained in depth at the end of the section. It also comes with a free Online practice center which you can use as many times as you want with similiar problems in the book. The online site offers free detailed answer explanations, diagnostic reports of where you stand, and instant scoring. It covers the basic math skills up through Algebra and Geometry most colleges and graduates schools are looking for. I wouldn't suggest it for a math intensive review for Engineering or Physics, much too simple for that, geared more for the social sciences. The only drawback is that I have found some answer errors in the text, so beware, and double check the answers by working through each problem.

This book is a great collection of math problems for those in need of help boosting their math understanding, each problem has a detailed explanation in finding the answer. If you have children in middle school or high school this is a great book for them to work with year round outside of classes!

Very solid book, and I would not hesitate to recommend it. Good variety in the problems, and clear, concise explanations in the answer key. I bought others in the series after getting this one.
